Looking at Starting my mountain rifle project real soon and was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on barrel fluting. I'm going with a lilja stainless 24" barrel. The smallest conture that they flute is a #5. The weight of the fluted #5 is roughly the same as a non-fluted #3. . . about 3.3 lbs.
Anything wrong with fluting or a skinny barrel?
